Top Reasons for Smoking a Smokeless Cigarette

According to the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC), one in five deaths in the United States is caused by smoking. The CDC further reports that around 443,000 deaths occur annually because of smoking, with 49,400 deaths occurring because of second smoke. With such figures haunting smokers, it makes perfect sense to give up your traditional cigarette for a smokeless cigarette. With increasing social pressure, many public as well as private places, such as offices, restaurants, bars, etc., have put a ban on smokers. While that may make smokers feel like social pariahs, opting for a smokeless cigarette can actually help resolve such issues. Besides that smokeless or electronic cigarettes (as they are also known), are a healthier alternative as compared to traditional cigarettes. Read on to find out more on why you should be smoking smokeless cigarettes instead of your regular killing sticks.

Why Smoke a Smokeless Cigarette
Here we will take a closer look at the various reasons why a smokeless cigarette is a better alternative to traditional cigarettes.
  • Healthier Alternative: Though smokeless or electronic cigarettes will still have some amount of nicotine for providing the necessary fix, they will lack many of the other harmful chemicals and tar found in regular cigarettes. Some brands even use essential oils and herbs to help curb the desire to smoke thus providing them with a healthier option. 
  • Last Longer and More Economical: With taxes targeting tobacco increasing and the growing costs of consumer goods smoking can be quite an expensive habit not to mention the toll it takes on your health. You might be smoking up three to four cigarettes in your smoking break where as a smokeless cigarette might last you for around a week. Though these cigarettes might cost more per piece but in the long run they will be less expensive compared to regular ones as these smokeless ones will last longer.
  • Less Addictive: Just like nicotine patches, these smokeless or electronic cigarettes can be effectively used to help you wean away from cigarettes and eventually give up smoking altogether. These cigarettes are even available in herbal blends which contain no nicotine, thus helping to break the physical as well as chemical dependency on regular cigarettes.
  • Can be used in No Smoking Areas: Many businesses including restaurants and bars across the United States and even around the world have shut their doors on smokers mostly due to pressure from city and state authorities. However, you can still smoke these smokeless cigarettes in all such places where smoking is banned as it is a cleaner alternative. Also these cigarettes are cleaner and do not have the smoky smell associated with regular cigarettes.

      How to buy smokeless cigarette

      Want to buy the best smokeless cigarette? Then, you’re going to be disappointed. Why? Because there’s not any one smokeless cigarette that can be called the best. It’s not a matter of one-size-fits-all. If it were, there would only be one or two brands to choose from, instead of the plethora of choices out there!

      If you are going to buy smokeless cigarette for the first time, your goal is not to buy *THE* best e-cigarette but to buy the cigarette that is best for you.

      When you buy a smokeless cigarette, there are 5 different areas to consider:
      • The Model
      • The Parts
      • The Quality
      • The Cost
      • The Features

      Model:
      Consider what would be the best model for you. Do you want a pen-style cigarette or a mini? Or, maybe a pipe or cigar suits you better? Do you want reusable or disposable? Your lifestyle and smoking preferences dictate the model you buy. Before you buy, make a comparison of comparable models. Make a feature-to-feature comparison chart. Rate different models clearly so that there are no doubts in your mind regarding the quality of the models.

      Components:

      There are three major components in electronic cigarettes: cartridge, atomizer and charger. A user must be concerned with how the battery has to be charged, how long the battery holds the charge and whether the starter kit is loaded with an extra battery. Batteries that need to be replaced constantly must be avoided. Atomizers get heated up each time the e-cigarette is lit. Due to the heat, atomizers are known to fail. You may want a starter kit with a spare. Cartridges carry e-juice in different flavors and varying concentration of nicotine. They are refillable. They do not need to be replaced as soon as the liquid inside is exhausted.

      Quality:
      What is the quality of construction of the device? If the parts do not fit well together, the device will lack stability and durability. Individual components must fit in seamlessly and provide the user with a great smoking experience.

      Cost:

      When you step out to buy electronic cigarettes, you will be surprised to find cigarettes of varying prices out there. Prices fluctuate across brands, Try and keep away from very cheap varieties and exorbitantly priced models. Something in between should give you good quality as well as long life.

      Features:
      Cigarette smoking is as much about style as it is about the experience. The style and features you desire are matters of personal preference. From the color of the cigarette to the style and the color of the LED tip, there are many things you must choose wisely before you make your first purchase.

      While you may not really succeed in your quest for *THE* best electronic cigarette, you will come across models that excel in different categories and you must make a choice according to your personal preferences and requirements.
